Aqua Lung SEA MK User Manual page 13

WARNING:
compressor or air supply where the regulated pres-
sure exceeds 3,000 pSI / 206 BAR. doing so may
weaken and damage the safety burst plug assembly
and/or SeA cylinder.
NOTE: The SEA will fill with the valve handwheel in the
completely closed position (red indicator ring visible). In this
position the pressure indicator (pin or dial) will not register psi.
This is not recommended.
5. While holding the first stage and fill adapter
secure, turn the SEA valve handwheel coun-
terclockwise until it is completely open. When
the handwheel is in the open position, the red
indicator ring is not visible.
6. Ensure that the SEA is supported, and turn the compressor valve
very slowly until it is slightly open to fill the cylinder with approximately
500 PSI / 34.5 BAR. Turn the fill valve shut and wait 45-60 seconds
before proceeding to fill the cylinder any further. Repeat this procedure
to fill the cylinder very slowly in small increments of 500 PSI / 34.5 BAR
or less, until it is filled to 3,000 PSI / 206 BAR.
NOTE: Always fill the SEA as slowly as possible by turning
the handwheel of the supply valve slowly to control the rate of
fill. Rapid filling will generate heat and will result in an incom-
plete fill after the cylinder cools. If the cylinder is warm to the
touch afterward, the fill rate was too rapid.
